For centuries the Rat King ruled over the Kingdom. He was cunning and strong but filled with lies and deceit. Eventually, the common rats grew tired of his tyrannical ways and hatched a plan to destroy him.
In secret, they conspired against the king. One day, at dawn, the rats rose from below the city streets and decided it was time to overthrow the evil Rat King.
The Leaders of Cheese arranged a Rat Council, where they planned to attack the King’s fortress.
With a great show of force, they stormed the castle gates and overwhelmed the guards. The Rat King tried to escape through the sewers, but he was betrayed by one of his own and captured by the rebellion.
With the reign of the Rat Kingdom over... rats were hopeful for a future that would set them free. The Rat Army grew stronger and a new era of discovery had begun. Under the new rule, rats created new tunnels for a home they would call: The Underground.
Although most rats found their place, there were still a few who were unsure. Growing up, they heard stories of magic but under the evil Rat King’s rule- all magic was forbidden. This didn’t stop some rats from believing. So… they embarked on a journey in hopes of finding even the smallest spark.
Years passed, with no magical discoveries, leaving them doubtful and discouraged. Some rats abandoned the group in the hopes of finding magic elsewhere. The group dwindled until only 69 rats remained. These rats studied all artifacts and literature they could find on magical wizards and prophecies.
One day while reading through some old books, a rat came across the diary of the first wizard to live among the rats. Reading further into his notes, it depicted a path that led to somewhere unknown. The rats stood in amazement, as they attempted to make sense of the colorful runes found throughout the diary.
“Wait… these runes.. They’re pieces to a map!” Shouted a rat.
The rats packed their belongings and set out to follow the markings on the map. For days, they traveled into the Rat Ruins - searching path after path.
Suddenly the group was met by the sound of a whispering voice coming from within the dark. At that moment... they saw something they could never explain.
A strange figure appeared before them... A remarkable rat with pure white fur, red eyes and a mystical blue glow. In the blink of an eye… it disappeared back into the darkness.
The group stared in bewilderment at the strange looking rat. The ground underneath began to shake and a strong beam of rainbow lights blinded them until they were all unconscious.
As the rats woke up, they found themselves in front of a remarkable cave with only a vague memory of what had just happened. The entire group admired the radiating beams of light and colorful hues that lit up the entrance. There was no doubt… they had finally discovered something magical.
The curious rats couldn't resist the alluring lights and rushed to explore the cave. As they stepped inside, the air changed. The rats felt a burst of energy flow throughout their bodies and they were surrounded by brilliant colors as if a rainbow had been condensed into the very chamber itself.
"Hey guys, over here! Look at what I found!" one rat yelled in excitement.
A small wooden box with colorful markings stood before them. It had markings similar to the ones they had found in the wizard's diary.
"What should we do?" asked one rat.
Another answered, "I don't think we should touch it."
But, another rat said "Don't you want to know what's in there?."
As they lifted the lid, a gentle wind of rainbow dust filled the room and soon the whole cave was covered in glittering rainbow dust. The runes on the wall began to glow in vibrant colors. The rats gasped. This was more than they ever dreamed possible.
It was then that a strange creature appeared. It was the Albino Rat again. He stood in the shadows, eyes gleaming bright, watching them curiously. He spoke in a soothing voice, "You have all been chosen." ... unleashing a spell that would change them forever.
The dust began to float around them as golden swirls formed above their heads and covered their fur with the colors of the rainbow.
The rats were shocked, unable to move or speak. There was silence after the spell… and the albino rat was nowhere in sight.
Soon, the dust began to settle and they became aware of their surroundings once again. They stared in amazement at their new selves... their fur had completely transformed, absorbing all the colors of the rainbow.
Then group was engulfed in a blinding flash of light.
When they opened their eyes, they found themselves back in the ruins. Their fur remained bright with glowing iridescent hues. The rainbow dust had vanished... the rats looked at each other in disbelief...
"Where are we? Where is the Rainbow Cave?"
